Description
When he was ten, Billy was kidnapped from his adoptive family by his father, a professional rodeo rider from New Mexico. Five and a half years later, just as suddenly, he was returned. A little over a year after this second upheaval, Billy seems to be adjusting to his new life, until his best freind from New Mexico kills himself. Traveling back for the funeral, Billy finds himself in a situation much like that of his freind: two fathers face to face, two sets of hopes and ambitions for his own future. And Billy must now cope not just with the death of his freind, but also with the realization that his own life is spiralling into the same abyss that took Bobby's life.
